Mozilla and Samsung working on a new browser

Mozilla and Samsung working together? Frankly, this is a somewhat unusual combination.What is not unusual (at least for Mozilla) is that they are working on a new browser for mobile phones . Yes, both companies are collaborating on a new project known as " Servo ".
It is a mobile web browser designed to make use of multi-core processors in smartphones today, but also take advantage of the ARM architecture , as stated. The browser code is created in Rust, the new Mozilla programming language, which is also similar to C + +, Lisp and Erlang. The programming language itself is in its infancy in fact, and on Wednesday was released version 0.6.
With Servo,Samsung and Mozilla web browser intended to create a much safer and with far fewer vulnerabilities than the rest, without neglecting all they are the features, of course. Both companies refused to mention a release date or any details of the final product. However, it is likely that some future Samsung smartphones integrate the default browser, but do not expect the Galaxy S IV will.
